Senate confronts administration
over football
_ •
by A.L. Jones
Again football at EMC was the
major topic of last week's
ASEMC Senate. President Van
de Wetering, Administrative
Vice-President Ken Heikes, and
Athletic Director Woody Hahn
were there to field questions
from the senators and the
members of Executive Cabinet.
Senator Bruce Parker led off
the discussion with a brief
account of the Wednesday
meeting between the senate task
force and the three men
mentioned above along with
Coach Woodring. All but Coach
Woodring refused to allow the
meeting to be taped by the
senators. According to Parker,
they didn't learn anything new
talking to the administration on
this matter.
Senator Judy Trujillo asked
the president if the football
budget, if cut, would be
dispersed among the other
intercollegiate athletics at
Eastern. His reply was that he
would definitely ask for monies
thrOugh the senate legislature if
the program is dropped to fund
the other intercollegiate sports.
ASEMC Business Manager Tom
Page then asked Van de
Wetering if he had not stated at
Wednesday's task force meeting
that he would "guarantee"
'reallocation of those monies
saved. Van de Wetering
emphatically denied that and
then stated that this was being
taken out of context and
chastised Page for doing so.
Unfortunately, the administra-tion
would not allow that
meeting to be tape-recorded so
there is no record of it.
The twenty-thousand dollar
deficit and meeting Title IX
requirements were major points
Van de Wetering discussed as
bearing on the football
program's survival. Community
support and the lack of it was
also brought up.
In response to Senator uary
Mariegard's question as to how
similar programs in the state and
conference were doing
financially, Van de Wetering
stated that the other programs
were in trouble too (refering to
WMC and Tech..) Tech in Butte
has a football budget of
approximately $108,000.
Western will not release their
cost figures for their football
program. In a similiar vein ,
President Van de Wetering
stated that from what he had
been able to discern from the
other members of the Frontier
Conferece, the Conference
would not disintegrate if one of
the members dropped its
football program. The
Conference hangs by a thin
. thread according to Van de
Wetering and the scheduling and
organization is chaotic.
ASEMC Vice-president Grant
Adams asked Van de Wetering
to tell the Senate specifically
how much of the budget of the
athletic department would have
to be reallocated to meet Title IX
requirments. Athletic Director
Woody Hahn stated that he
didn't know and Van de
Wetering also appeared to have
little idea in the matter. The two
areas in need of correction were
making up football's $20,000
deficit and hiring an additional
woman coach, full-time. Van de
Wetering was sure Eastern is not
in compliance with Title IX
requirements but was evasive
and vague when asked for
specifics repeated through the
evening by "the Senators and
Executive Cabinet.
Senator Randy Foreman's
statement that "It looks to me
like, this was slapped, together to
drop football- helped to ignite a
flurry of questions from the
Senate as to the appropriateness
of the Administration's handling
of this matter.
Senator Bruce Parker queried
as to why football was under the
scrutiny of the budget-cutters.
Van de Wetering replied that
along with football costing the
most, there has been poor
support from the community
and students, and that a diverse
and well-rounded athletics
program is a necessity.
Senator Foreman then asked
the president why so little time
had been allocated to the
decision-making process and
thereby cutting off the student
voice. F-oreman pointed out that
when Van de Wetering is'due to
announce the decision,
December 9, he will be at a Board
of Regents meeting out of town.
There will be two days of school
left and the ASEMC Senate
won't meet for another three
weeks after the decision. This
effectively cuts off any chance of
successful student protest to get
the decision changed.
Van de Wetering's reply was
that the decision has to be
arrived at quickly for the players
to save their eligibility if they
wish to transfer schools after
the decision.
Senator Foreman's rebuttal
was why then? The players will
be gone! Why not earlier?
Van de Wetering replied that
by David - — Villarreal
The Director of Student
Union Activities here at Eastern
has submitted his resignation to
officials of the college. Phil
Mueller has been director for
three and a half years now, since
July of 1975. His resignation will
be effective March 36, 1979.
Dr. Dunlop, Dean of
Students, says a search will be
initiated shortly in order to find
a new Director of Student Union
Activities. Mr. Mueller has
stated he will do everything in
his power to make the transition
word to the media about the
-discussion" got out too early
and this _put extra pressure on '
the task . force ._ and-administration--
that the
decision had to be arrived at in as
fair a way as possible and that
they had received "lots of input."
Business Manager Tom Page
pointed out that possibly cutting
back or entirely dropping the
football program had been
brought up last spring during
the campus changeover to zero-based
budgeting. He also stated
that he felt "This cutting a
program in two months is
ridiculous! Why wait till the last
moment to do this?"
Van de Wetering retorted that
he had delayed the examination
this much not to hurt the team!
The task force backed out after
three weeks because of media
attention although he offered
between directors as smooth as
possible.
Mr. Mueller didn't make a
sudden decision; he has been
considering his choice_ s for two
years. However, the chance to
become involved in a family
farming operation in North
Dakota finally won out. But Mr.
Mueller has enjoyed his
experience at EMC tremend-ously,
and it is with mixed
emotions that he views his
future.
It's been under Mr. Mueller's
direction that a great many
improvements in the Student
them a time extension.
Senator Roger Vanlanding-ham
pointedly asked the
President whether or not the
decision had been made. Van de
Wetering stated that he had not
yet made the decision and that
he would then (Dec. 9).
The question of why just cut
football was raised often by
several Senators. Woody Hahn's
response was that football and
basketball are the only programs
that can be cut. Additional
expenses in travel and lodgings
are incurred when a team enters
district and regional finals as
they anticipate the basketball
team doing which throws the
budget off balance. "It's the cost
of being good!" declared Hahn.

In the same
Y Athletic Department fumbles, intentionally
A political term of note from
the Nixon Administration seems
to have resurfaced in McMullen
this year. The term is "executive
privilege a good coverup for
shady maneuverings and shady
they are indeed, folks. Again I
take the football dilemma as a
case in point, although some of
the administration's creative
accounting in allocating student
monies will hopefully appear
here later on.
President John Van de
Wetering has handled this
decision in the most convoluted
process of chicanery I have yet to
discover on this campus. He has
faked us out with clever feints
and misdirected the effective '
voice and input of the student
body into a token and
meaningless factor. The current
trick and the most often stated
reason is a supposd failure to
match Title IX requirements
that can be met only by cutting
and reallocating between 40 and
130,000 dollars out of one --
program, football. I haven't seen
this kind of feigned hysteria ,
since the 6-Mill Levy panic.
Title IX does not state that
equal funding must be allocated
to women's sports of even a 60-
40 mix. There must be only
equal opportuity which basically
already exists unless they want
the women's baskeball team to
play big NCAA schools in distant
balmy lands like both men's
basketball and football. Football
won't be carrying on this farce
any longer but no word has been
heard about a similar action
towards the basketball team
(men's) which is apparently the
darling of Athletic Dirctor
Woody Hahn and Van de
Wetering. They've neatly
sidestepped every time requests
that men's basketball be cut back
Also to help meet the fabled Title
IX deficiencies.
According to Ken Heikes and
Van de Wetering at the
November 16 confrontation
with the football players, they
were unable to hire a full-time
women's coach this year because
the money was needed
elsewhere in the budget,
probably to meet the $20,000
deficit in the football program.
This is a result of extremely
inept, incompetent, and stupid
fiscal management on the part of
the Athletic Department with
Woody Hahn in particular to
blame. Coach Woodring stated
that he was never given cost
figures or in other words a
budget per trip to know how
much he could spend to remain
in the budget. Regardless of
whether Hahn spoon-fed those
figures to Woodring, which he
didn't,_ obviously, it should be up
to Woodring as head of the
football program to determine
those figures himself. He,
shirking a vital responsibility,
apparently didn't do so. Along
with an Athletic Director who
can't handle a budget either, the
results were shambles.
Van de Wetering and Heikes
have pledged to varying degrees
(it depends on when and where
one hears them talk aboid it)
they will try to get any monies
saved on the football program to
the other intercollegiate athletic
sports after first paying off the
$20,000 football deficiency.
They admit they have no
guarantees whatsoever that the
state legislature will allow them
to do this and not reallocate the
funds to UM or MSU.
The deficit is basically a result
of Woody Hahn's nonexistent
work in publicizing the football
squad and raising funds from the
community and booster club.
Most of this money has gone
into the scholarships for the
players. Hahn can obviously sell
a program if he wants to.
Witness the tremendous
campaign for Yellowjacket
basketball. Tickets distributed
with each "Whopper at Burger
Kings, television spots, and
highly publicized play at Metra
are three examples of the
campaign. Women's basketball
at EMC took in revenues of
approximately $33,000 last year.
Football took in under $7,000. Is
this a fair and even management
of our athletic program when
some sports are handled
intelligently and adeptly while
others wander and stumble like
football or starve with neglect
like our top-ranked gymnastics
teams?
From three separate sources I
have been informed that .
President Van de Wetering made -
the decision to drop football this
summer and has bee_ n politically
maneuvering for the most
opportune moments since then.
So much for the student input
vein .
Jack Dunlop, John Dacron,
Gene Kiser, John Deeny, Jim
Haugen, Clay Dunlop, Dick
Hatch, Frank Kampfe, Dick
Lamb, Dick Kauk, Bill Hilton,
Bob Winters, Ken Benner and
Bob McWilliams were my
teammates in 1958 and '59 at
EMC. We were couched by a
great person named Al Feldner.
Coach Feldner was a Montana
high school coach who gave
Montana athletes a chance to
play basketball. The_ fine
' education and real experiences .
that we gained at Eastern have ,
enabled us to lead sucessful and
productive lives in the state we
love.
Now Eastern athletics have
been taken over by a President
and Athletic Dirctor who seek
only to fulfill their egos and gain
national recognition as a
basketball power.
As a candidate for basketball
coach at Eastern last spring, I
was told by Athletic Dirctor
Woody Hahn that football would
be dropped and the money put
into the basketball program.
, This is the real reason behind
Van de Wetering's phony study
of _ the football program.
I am angry and disappointed
over the direction Eastern's
athletics have taken the past 20
years. Baseball is gone; football
and other sports are on the way.
This will mean that close to a
hundred young men will be
dep_r i_v ed of_ the experiences I
had. Coaches with college
playing experiences are not
produced. Montana athletes are
not recurited, and community
interest is at an all-time low.
Having been involved in
Montana athletics for over 30
years, I know this is not what the
people of Montana want for
their sons and daughters. The
13,000 fans that watched high
school basketball tournaments
last year, plus the countless
spectators of football and other
school sports want their young
people to have a chance to
continue these activities in
college.
Eastern is one of the
highlights of my life, having
provided me with a great
education, and a chance to
continue my lifetime love of
basketball and baseball. I have
great memories and friendships
that will last throughout my life.
I hope the people of Montana
will join me in my battle to gain
the same opportunities for the
high school athlete of today that .
I had 20 years ago.
Gene Espeland
Great Falls
Van de Wetering claims he has
wanted to help him decide. 'Not
all the snow jobs at Eastern are
outdoors. I sincerely hope my
information is incorrect. We'll
know before the quarter's end
what the decision will be, but
will we ever know the chicanery
and straight-faced lies the
decision came through? I doubt
it. Wave goodbye to the guys in
jerseys, folks.

Editor:
I went to Eastern for three
years and never saw an article on
teachers or how the students
feel about they 're (sic) teachers.
I talked with a lot of students
who feel their (sic) getting
cheated out of an education. The
students feel that some of the
, teachers have no experience or
not related experience in their
feild (sic). I know some of the
teachers at Eastern care about
thier students and want to help
them learn. Yet some teachers
forget that the student pays for a
class and should get the most
knowledge out of it. I have had
teachers who are good and some
bad ones too. I don't like the
teachers who puts students
down for asking questions. I feel
were (sic) here to learn and gain
knowledge and which it takes
asking a questions to find out the
why or understanding of some
things. A student should be
allowed to come to class or stay
away if he or she learns more
through the book than the
lectures. A teacher should never
yell at in class for
talking or expressing a point of
view to a felloW classmate. If a
student ask (sic) another a
question and the other student
can explain it better than the
teacher; he or she should be
allowed to do so. In Junior High
or High School where the tax
payers were the main support of
schools then such structure is
allowed. Where the student is
paying for his or her education
he or she should be given the
privillage (sic) of attending in
asking questions or not to
attend. I feel a teacher who is
good in his or her feild (sic) can
lecture a class period in a smooth
manner without getting lost or
jumping around all the time
causing confusion to the
students. If he or she doesn't
know the material then how can
they expect to teach it to a
student.
I feel if the President would
spend more time on Hiring
Good Teachers with Ph. D.
instead of Master Degrees or the
football team. We, the students
at Eastern maybe (sic) able to get
a Good Education. By no menas
is Eastern with their teaching
staff ready for a Universty (sic)
System. Eastern is still in the
Junior league not quite ready for
the big league until the quality of
teaching arises.

Van de Wetering meets with team
by A.L. Jones
On November 16, President
Van de Wetering met again with
the players of Eastern's football
team as agreed upon at the
conclusion of the in the
president's office several weeks_
ago. It was in Room 117 of the
P.E. building , a classroom that
was filled with the entire team.
Administrative Vice-President
Ken Heikes, Athletic Director
Woody Hahn, Coach Dana
Woodring, several assistant
coaches and PE instructors,
ASEMC Business Manager Tom
Page, Student Grievance Officer
Cathy Wilson, and a number of
cheerleaders were also in
attendance.
Van de Wetering opened with
some major new statements.
From what he had been able to
discern by talking to the other
members of the Frontier
Conference, particularly in
Montana, the Conference could
survive one member dropping
its football program although it
would be a serious blow. Many
of the task force's proposals for
cuts are being phased out of
serious consideration.
University of North Dakota's
level of play will no longer be
undertaken most definitely by
Eastern. This would cut NCAA
Division II teams from our
schedule. Then the rapid fire
questioning began.
The task force projected a
$40,000 cut of teh $135,000
program. $20,000 of that would
cover the present deficit caused
by lack of booster monies. The
Levis
Farah
Bibs
Lee
&Disco
other funds would go to the
women's sports such as
gymnastics, basketball, and
volleyball to better meet Title IX
requirements.
The suggested cuts proposed
by Dana Woodring establish a
bare minimum program, under
which he feels he can operate a
competitive team, would cut the
budget to between $95-100,000.
The budget, after task force
cuts, would be approximately
$87,000.
Title IX is designed to enforce
women's teams being able to
play at the. same competitive .
level as the men's team in a
program. Failure to comply with
this results in a cut-off of federal
funding. This point was the
major argument of the
administration for the rest of the
ninety-minute meeting. Van de
Wetering and Heikes are
apparently quite worried that
EMC's athletic program is not
fully complying with Title IX
requirements.
Coach Dana Woodring did not
believe Title IX to be as genuine
an argument as the administra-tion
stated. He said that he felt
this point might be the reason
_that was stated for dropping the
football program. In other
words, a deception.
Van de Wetering stated
emphatically that Eastern must
allocate more funds to women's
sports to meet Title IX. He
thinks we will have roughly the
same amount of money for
intercollegiate athletics but that
football will definitely not have
as large a budget as this year's.
He. also_mentioned that MSU is
currently being investigated by
HEW for Title IX violations.
Team captain Steve Ahman's
retort to this was why not cut
back all sports proportionately
instead of just dropping the most
expensive.
Van de Wetering offered to
drop men's basketball instead
and then went on to state that

The formal meeting of the
steering committee of the
Montana Student Lobby (MSL)
was canceled this past weekend
leaving the lobby's priorities
unresolved and the lobbyist's
contract unsigned.
Patrick Duffy, a member of
the University of Montana
delegation to the MSL, said
yesterday the reason given for
the cancelation was that the
delegation from Northern
Montana College could not
attend the meeting in Boulder
because of bad weather.
Duffy said that an informal
meeting was held Saturday
night but the formal meeting
Sunday morning was canceled
and the delegates left after
breakfast.
He said the reasoning behind
the cancelation is "totally
most of the other programs had
no fat to cut and were running
on a bare _minimum or less
already.
Woody Hahn was put on the
carpet by members of the team
who demanded to know why he
was doing so much to publicize
Yellowjacket Basketball such as
TV spots and free tickets at
attorneys. The selection panel'
was impressed with Mr.
Johnson's dynamic personality.

Business Manager Tom Page's
retort was "Does tflat indidkate
that being good is a criteria in
cutting?" • . _
Woody Hahn's reply was
"I've never said that. "
Senator Fz'ank Kuehn asked
why the team hadn't been
publicized so that is could
perhaps eventally begin to be
self-supporting through gate
receipts.
Van de Wetering's reply was
that it would cost a lot to
Vanlandingham asked Hahn
why he hadn't accomplished ,
more in terms of fund-raising
and booster club expansion in
the community. Hahn retorted
that "It's not my job, but I spent
60% of my time last year on
fundraising and I admit that I did
Burger King when he had done
so little for the football team this
fall.
Hahn's only reply was "I'll sell
what 1 can sell." • The meeting
concluded with Van de
Wetering's promise to announce
a decision between the fourth
and ninth of December.

One may wonder why Curtis
Johnson. wanted to become a
Montana Lobbyist. His reason
was to diversify from being
involved in Oregon politics and
legislation. Oregon is similar to
Montana in that right so he will
have no problem adjusting.
Curtis took office on
November 15. The MSL
committee convened the
following weekend to finalize his
contract.

the legislators.
Duffy and Jeff Gray, another
UM delegate on the steering
committee, have both empha-sized
that Johnson should be
introduced to individual
legislators before the session
begins in order to get to know
the personalities he will be
dealing with.
Johnson just moved to
.Montana from Oregon this year.
"It seems we have lost a lot of
precious time," Duffy said. "I
find it disconcerting that his
'(Johnson's) knowledge of
legislative personnel has not
moved out of the Gallatin
Valley."
However; Duffy said that
Johnson will be visiting UM on
Nov. 29 in order to get to know
the legislators from Missoula
and get acquainted with the
area.

Senator Foreman proposed a
Vote of no-confidence in the
manner of how the situation was
handled. It passed with 11 votes
as Senate Bill No. 6.
With the passage of the bill,
Senator Dan Thomas com-mented
that he hoped this would
put off the administration
rhetoric.
Senator Vanlandingham then
made a motion that became
Senate Bill No. 7. The bill states
that ASEMC Student Senate
supports a viable and
competitive football program
and thinks that a role and scope
staement for the entire athletic
department must be done. It
passed unanimously with
Senator Shelly Voeks ab-staining.
Executive Cabinet will
administer the bills and ensure
that copies . will be sent to
places such as the Board of
Regents and the EMC
Foundation, and of course, the
President's office.

Basketball is the most widely
played and watched team game
in the world. It is also the newest
of the major team games. Unlike
games that evolved slowly
through various forms before
they acquired accepted playing
rules, basketball was invented
for a specific purpose at a specific
time and place. In December
1891, in Spring, Mass., the two-team
court game was created by
James Naismith, a 30-year-old
instructor in physical education
at the Internation Young Men's
Christian Association Training
School, now Springfield College.
Naismith's original assign-ment
from Luther H. Gulick, his
superior at Sprinfield, was to
develop some form of athletic
activity that could be used in-doors
during winter months in a
northern climate. Baseball,
football and many other outdoor
games were well established and
popular with participants and
spectators. But between the end
of the football season in autumn
and the beginning of baseball the
next spring, calisthenics and
gymnastics were the only
activities that indoor facilities
permitted, especially in New
England. These activities offered
nothing as attractive as the
exertion, competitive fire,
scoring, and strategy of the
outdoor team games.
Naismith, therefore, simply
took a standard soccer ball, hung
a peach basket at either end of
his small gymnasium, divided his
18-man class into two nine man
teams, and made the object of
per season. He also moved into
second place for career yards
per carr- y av-e raging 5.6 yards per
carry.
Other post season honors
include four players being picked
for the first team All-
Conference selections. They
include: Bolton; Senior Don
Ruth, a 6-2, 210 pound tackle
from Billings; Junior Steve
Ahmann, a 6-1, 215 pound
defensive end from Fort Collins,
CO, and Junior Rich Mart, a 6-1,
203 pound safety from Littleton,
CO.
the game an elementary one: to
throw the ball into one basket
while preventing the other team
from doing the same. Running
with the ball was forbidden. In'
the 1897-98 season, five-man
became the standard.
Essentially, basketball is the
same today as it was in the
beginning. It is now played
in every section of the world,
by both men and women in
schools, colleges, and clubs, and
at national and international
levels. It has also become a major
professional sport in the United
States. No accurate statistics on
players and spectators are
available, but attendance at
formally organized games in the
United States alone exceed 100
million each year. The Olympic
Games program has included
basketball since 1936, with
American teams winning all but

Kurland, taller but less agile
than Mikan, was the fou ndation
of Oklahoma A & M's deliberate
style, stressing ball possession
and careful shooting. Mikan
went on to become a dominant
player among the professionals,
while Kurland chose AAU

Olympic triumphs.
After World War H, a new
breed of basketball player
appeared. Men whose height
ranged from 6'4" to 7' tall
developed the agility, quickness,
and fine skills previously
possessed only by smaller
players. From this point on,
almost every college star went
on to become a professional star.
The three most important
players in the postwar era were
Bob Cousy, a gifted ball-handler;
Bill Russell, a great defensive
player; and Wilt Chamberlain,
the best scorer in NBA history
(he once averaged 50 points a
game in one season and scored
100 points in a single game.)

greatest players of all time are
Oscar Robertson, Elgin Baylor,

Volleyball wrap-up
The Eastern Montana college
1978 volleyball season has come
to a close, and Coach Nancy
Gruenert is pleased with the
over-all performance of the
entire team.
"We had a highly skilled squad
this year, and we learned, slowly
perhaps, to hustle and play as a
team rather than individuals,"
Gruenert explained.
The 1978 EMC ,Volleyballers
completed the season with an
18-15 win-loss record, and took
second place to Northern
Montana in the Frontier
conference race, ending the year
with a 10-6 Conference mark.
"Two of the best games we
played this season were in the
1978 Eastern Area Divisional
tournament," said Gruenert.
"Hustling was our weakest point
this year, but the coeds sure
performed will against Gonzaga
and Carroll College in the
tournament. We placed 10th.
The tournament was won by
Montana State University with
the University of Montana
placing second."
Laura Bermes Burgess of
Molt, Laura Sundheim of
Fairview, and Joni Barber of
Chinook were elected to the
by Allan L. Minear
Sports enthusiasts will be
happy to hear that the
Recreation Department has new
equipment available.
For EMC skiers, 30 pairs of
Rossignoi fiberglass cross-country
skis were bought.
They are a trouing model with
Silveretta cable bindings and a
two-was system. Along with the
new skis, they purchased 15
pairs of fiverglass XL Polaris ski
poles.
For backpackers: High quality
Frontier Conference first team.
,Sundheim was also name "most
valuable player" by her
teammates, and Carol Burns of
Dubois, Wyoming, was elected
"most inspirational player,"
while the team voted for Tracy
Treinen of Riverton, Wyoming,
as the "most improved player" of
the year.
Eastern will be losing the
talents of five seniors, all of
whom were regular starters this
year: Burgess, Sundheim,
Barber, Gwen Wock of Casper,
Wyoming, and Yvonne Kasten
of Brockway, Montana.
"Burgess and Sundhiem were
two of our best setters," said
Gruenert. Burgess played two
years at Eastern, having
transferred from Northwest
ComMunity College, and was
also considered to be one of the
best hustlers. Sundheim has
played all of her collegiate years
on the volleyball team, and, in
spite of her 5-4 height, was the
highest jumper on the squad
making her very effective in the
front row of play.
Gruenert looks to Dallas
Mease of Lander, Wyoming, and
Laurie Kandt of Casper,
Wyoming, to replace Burgess
Polarguard sleeping bags,

Timberline tents with a rain fly;

used the old ones know how
badly new maps were needed.)
For river floaters they now have
two new rafts which are thicker
and have greater stability.
It's the hope of the
Recreational Department that
the new equipment will be well-used,
so see it for yourself.
and Sundheim as setters next
year. Both are juniors this
season, with Mease transferring .
from Central Wyoming Junior
College and Kandt from Casper
Junior College.
Barber, one of the best
blockers on the team, also
graduates. According to the
coach, Barber steadily improved
her timing throughout the
season, and was a consistently
hard worker.
Gruenert looks to Kim Seville
of Columbia Falls, a junior, and
Jolene Lekse, a Billings
sophomore, to be key blockers
next year. Seville also is a
powerful spiker, and her
strongest asset is hitting. Lekse,
a key substitute this year, is a
super-strong server who has
shown great improvement.
Another strong blocker is
Donna Hansen , a Jr. from
Walden, Colo., and a transfer
from Eastern Wyoming Junior
College. According to Gruenert,
Hansen has the ability to be a
court leader, one of the best
front row players, and should
develop all-around with
experience.
"We're also losing Kasten, and
she is one player that really
surprised me," admitted
Gruenert. "I knew she was
exceptionally good in the back
row, but either I didn't give her
a chance or she developed her
front row talents too, and
became a fine all-arounder this
year." Kasten played two years
at North Dakota: Williston, and
one year at the University of
Montana before coming to
Eastern.
Three other volleyball players
are expected to return next year,
and will provide needed depth
and experience: Treinen, who
came to EMC with absolutely no
volleyball experience and has
vastly improved; Burns, a
sophomore, who is a strong
server and hard worker; and Deb
Akers of Lusk, Wyoming, who
also has a strong serve and good
court hustle.

LITERARY TRASH
Now about this budget item here. .
by A.L. Jones
It's considered the worst part
of the year by most officers of
campus organizations, and
perhaps it's only a coincidence
that it takes place two weeks
after Christmas vacation when
everybody feels pent-up,
hungover, and owlish. The
ordeal I refer to is that of
preparing and justifying your
organization's budget to the
ASEMC student senate. It never
is much fun and distracts us
from the business of running
our organizations, but it's an
unpleasant necessity that most
of us go through. Those that
don't go through this time-consuming
process usually wish
they did so they could avoid the
inane fund-raising projects of
their high school days. Selling
beanies to seniors and weaving
throw-rugs out of lint collectd
from the dorm dryers have been
two of the more successful
attempts lately, and I doubt
either of them made more than
$50 for the clubs that put them
on, the Sons of Norway-
Blackfoot chapter and the girls
from Alpha Sigma Sigma
sorority and baking club. So
with the thoughts of similar
projects to supplement our
haphazard advertising revenues,
I finally sat down with our
nervous little blonde business
manager and with her, our
financial records of sorts, a
phone book and the phone,
worked out a very feasible
i&WADOPDMV-PaWat

budget for the next year. It
would be the year I would be
editor of The Retort and I
wanted to make sure _that I
would have a budget. I was
Assistant or Managing Editor at
the time and felt I had a pretty
good grasp of our finances.
Pam, our business manager, is
a fourth year business major
with the accounting option well-in-
hand. She will gladly admit,
however, that our intricate,
disorganized mess often drives
her to tears and that the
Business office through which it
is all so slowly processed adds to
the confusion. Pam has begun
smoking a lot more heavily since
the threatening notes from our
printer first started coming.
She's adjusted to the fact that
from merchants we patronize
for supplies she will receive
omnious notes to the effect that
they have not received their
remuneration yet through the
ever so slow business office and
that they will be sending Italian
goons to deprive her of her car
and all other material goods until
payment is received. The people
we owe over a hundred dollars to
are even worse. She
intermittently tittered,
stammered, muttered, groaned,
and puffed in the four hours of a
Thursday afternoon that the
budget took to form.
With a roar of triumph, I
snatched up the tow working
copies of the budget and handed
our secretary the final form for
submission to the Student
Government. She's a freshman
on work-study from the Editor's
hometown of White Sulphur
Springs and is usually in need of
something to keep her busy.
Unfortunatley she was working
on her library research paper--
"An Examination of Intra-cultural
Habits of Burmese
Baboons as They Apply to
Goethe's Dr. Faustus" but
promised to do it up properly
within the next week.
Now, four weeks later, the
budget was coming out of the
Ways and Means Committee
with their reccommendations
and under the designation
"Financial Bill No. 79." Each
financial bill has to wait in Ways
' and Means for three weeks, so
this was nothing unexpected. I
had been unable to attend the
Ways and Means hearing during
which the bill was discussd and
the committee's rec-commendations
arrived at. The
meeting was convenienity
scheduled during a test in
Economics 201 dealing with
"how to run an economy into a
sever depression and not feel
guilty." So I entered with no idea
as to how it would be received by
this financially tight senate.
An ominous note struck me
immediately as I entered the
wood-paneled Memorial
Conference Room. As my
nostrils recognized and
welcomed the peculiar aroma of
the senate meetings, a strange
blend of cigarette smoke, coffee,
sweat, and alcohol, I sat
cautioulsy down in the vinyl
cushioned chairs provided along
the walls for spectators. The
business manager, subject of an
editorial, critical, last fall smiled
at me with a triumphant look
suffusing his delicate, pale
features surrounded by lank
black hair. The president looked
like an wolf ready to close in for
the kill, and I imagined saliva
dripping from his even white
teeth. He was also the subject of
an extrememly biting editorial
during the fall. My friends on
the senate looked worried, and a
distinct whiff of Canadian Club
Whiskey wafted from their
direction at the end of the long
wood table at which sat the
sixteen senators and the three
members of Executive Cabinet.
The meeting proceeded slowly
along through two budgets;
then, finally, mine came up. The
president leaned forward to rest
his forearms on the tabletop, his
feigned insouciance vanished.
The business manager grinned
secretly to himself and pulled
out some long computer
printouts from the Business
Office. I noticed those sheets
were annotated and marked
a red Flair's brilliant lines. I was
yanked abruptly back into the
meeting by the business
manager's voice intoning to the
senate the reccommendations of
the Ways and Means Com-mittee.
Their proposals
eliminated all of the planned
capital equipment I had
calculated so carefully such as
typewriters, an artwaxer, an
ultrasonic technical pen cleaner,
a light table, and a Mr. Coffee
machine with a brandy dispenser
attachment. Further, they
eliminated T-shirts for the staff,
a limousine service for the
editor, pencils, photographic
supplies, the Playboy,
Penthouse, and Hustler sub-scriptions,
and rum allowance
for the editor--allowed a bottle a
quarter out of the budget for aid
in writing editorials at 4:00 am to
fill space. The last cut really
hurt.
Then came Executive
Cabinet's reccommendations. It
was short and simple: cut the
newspaper off entirely. When
half the senate cheered that one,
I knew I was in trouble. I sank
into my sweater a little more as I
began to lose hope.
Expires December 31, 1978
The discussion that followed
consisted of the Executive
Cabinet passing around back
issues of the paper with
particularly offending portions
circled. They muttered and
nodded so much over these that I
knew it was going to be rough.
swifly put together a defense
worthy of Clarence Darrow in
his prime in my whirling head
and then confidently thrust out
my hand to be recognized by a
senator so that I could speak to
the senate. My hand would be
waving past the adjournment of
the meeting.
Frank was the only one that
saved the paper from going the
way of the passenger pigeon
(utter extinction). He's the sole
staff member on senate and
luckily extremely effective in
senate. He spoke and lobbied for
twenty solid minutes and
managed to amend the bill so
radically that we could continue
our existence on campus. Only
we had to change our name to
the "Rimrock" and change our
production somewhat.
We're the yearbook now.

Comes A Horseman
by Frank Kuehn
I don't think any professional
critic of the silver screen would
disagree when I say that, as an
actress, Jane Fonda has matured.
I'm refering to her role in her
last film Comes a Horseman,
starring Jane Fonda, " James
Caan, and Jason Robard.
The setting could have been
from any Zane Gray or Louis
L'amour novel, with majestic
mountains and high mountain
meadows. However, the time
frame is near the end of World
War II. If not for. the airplane
and the "ancient-looking" truck,
one might easily imagine an
earlier time frame.
What is going on is typical of
the early West. A large cattle
baron wants more land and a
head strong, stubborn female
(who just happens to own a
small, choice piece of the valley)
won't sell out. So, being the
baron type, Jason Robard does
his best to get the land, the
cattle, and even Jane any way he
can--even murder.
Meanwhile, James Caan, just
back from the war, buys a piece
of Jane's land with a buddy as a
partner. Robard fails in an
attempt to have the pair
murdered, but Caan is badly
wounded. Aided by a salty old
boy named Frank, Fonda puts
him up in a shed until he is
better. But a series of bad luck
befalls the struggling rancher, so
Jane and James, along with
Frank; join forces.
The movie is blessed with a
believable plot, brilliant acting,
suspense and drama that keep
the viewer guessing the
outcome. The movie is award
caliber, especially for Fonda,
who performs as well, if not
better, than her portrayal of a
'New York hooker in Kiute, or a
housewife turned hilarioulsy
crooked in Fun with Dick and
Jane.
Comes a Horseman rivals any
movie at the box office for
viewing pleasure. Anyone with
a feel for the land, or the last of
the American West, will enjoy
Comes a Horseman.

Montana Kaimin reporter
Board of Regents Chairman
Ted James said yesterday a new
commissioner of higher
education probably would not
begin work until July 1, 1979.
- A search is now being
conducted to replace Lawrence
Pettit, the present com-missioner,
who has resigned
effective January 1. George
Bandy, deputy commissioner,
will then become acting
commissioner until a replace-ment
is hired.
Bandy has not applied for the
position.
James said that because most
of the candidates would have to
fulfill their present job
obligations until July 1, they
would not be able to begin work
before then.
James said that none of the
applicants for the job has been
officially eliminated, but "some
obviously" are not qualified. For
example, James said that those
who did not have a doctorate
would not be qualified.
Wilma Burke, executive
secretary to Pettit, who is also
acting as secretary for the search
committee, said yesterday 124

applications had been recieved
for the job by the Oct. 1 deadline.
The original deadline for
applications had been set for
Sept. 1, but because not enough
qualified people had applied, the
deadline was extended to Oct. 1.
Burke said 96 applications
were received by the ' first
deadline.
Members of the search
committee are the entire Board
of Regents; University of
Montana President Richard
Bowers, who represents the
Council of Presidents; and Hugh
Dresser, a faculty member at
Montana Tech, who represents
the Inter-Unit Faculty Council.
Laurie Briney, student regent,
is representing students on the
search committee.
The regents will have a "pretty
good idea" after the regents'
meeting on Dec. 11 and 12 which
applicants the field could be
narrowed to, James said.
The field will probably be
narrowed to four or five
candidates in January, James
said. And the new commissioner
would be selected after that and
would take over the job July 1.
Burke said presidents' council
is scheduled to review the
applications on Dec. 1, the
faculty council on Dec. 2, and the
Students Advisory Council on
Dec. 3.
Burke said she expects the
groups to submit reports to the
regents at the December
meeting.
At its June 28 meeting, the
regents adopted the procedures
for the commissioner search as
proposed by Pettit.
The recommendation says
that legislators, members of the
governor's staff, the governor
himself and all others external
to the university system should
not be involved" in the selection
of the new commissioner.
"Any participation on their
part raises erroneous impli-cations
concerning their
legitimate role respecting the
university system," Pettit said,
"and we do not need to
relinquish this important
prerogative in order to buy their
good will."
Pettit said in a recent
interview that new corn-missioner
should have "political
savvy and talents" but should be
appointed on the basis of his
academic credentials.
The commissioner's position
has "too much political identity
now," he said.
The criteria for the new
commissioner adopted by the
regents include:
*Possession of a doctorial
degree.
*Distinguished experience in
academic administration,
teaching or scholarship.
*Familiarity with statewide
systems of higher education and
significant experience in public
higher education.
*Familiarity with higher
education.
*The ability to represent
higher education nationally.
*The ability to represent
higher education credibly to
legislators and the lay public.
*The ability to provide
professional leadership for the
regents.
*The ability to work with and
provide leadership to the
professional staff of the
commissioner's office.
*Demonstrated administra-tive
capacity sufficient to
supervise experts in different
fields within the commissioner's
office.
*The ability to relate to
professionals in other levels of
education within the state.
*The ability to understand the
concerns and needs of students
and faculty, and to relate to them
in a direct manner without
undermining the authority of
campus presidents.

Language Workshops
Katoya Players plan busy winter
The Katoya Players of EMC
have announced their activities
for the 1978-79 school year.
Katoya is the oldest chartered
organization on campus. They
were chartered to promote
theatre at EMC and in past years
have staged several fund raising
programs, but this year shall
prove to be the best. Several
fund raising projects have been
successful in Katoya's attempts
to attend January 5th, Rocky
Mountain Theatre Festival in
Grand Junction, Colo. Most of •
you are familiar with their
annual Halloween make-up
booth, which was a success again .;
this year. They alio were very
active in this year's Sacrifice
Cliff Jaycees Haunted House.
Plans for the future include
selling old fashioned photo-graphs
in which the purchaser is
dressed in an authentici
costume, his/hei picture is
taken, and the photo is "tin-typed".
A nice Christmas gift.
Club members will take the
photos under the supervision of
Wayne Thares, who owned and
operated this type of business 't
for the past year in Wyoming.
1Portraits will be taken between
11-3 on Dec. 6, 7, and 8 in the
SUB for a very nominal price.
Future plans include a radio
controled road rally on the Petro
Theatre stage. Details will be
announced soon. If you are
interested in joining this very
active campus organization,
contact the Communication
Arts Department at 657-2178 or
stop by the photo sessions in the
SUB and talk to them.
An assistant professor from
the University of Montana in
Missouiaf Lynda Miller, and Dr.
Sandra Rietz, assistant
professor of Education at
Eastern Montana College in
• Billings, are conducting a
language seminar.
The program has been divided
into two parts with Ms. Miller

be "Language and Context."
She will lecture Friday
evening from 7:00 to 9:00 and
again Saturday moringing from
9:00 to 12:00 in room 209 in the

At a later date, the two
assistant professors will conduct
the same seminar except Ms.
Miller will lecture at the U of M
and Dr. Rietz will present her
program at EMC.
The seminar is open to the
public, and it is expected that
speech language clinicians and
people interested in the reading
field will want to take advantage
of the seminars. The program
can be taken for one credit.
Elvis day? $4.72/hour
American Artists Commem-orative
Foundation, Inc. recently
announced extensive plans to
establish January 8th, Elvis
Presley's birthday as a national
and/or state holiday.
American Artists Commem-orative
Foundation, Inc., a non-profit
organization, plans to
work on a city, state and national
level to establish volunteer
centers at key points across the
country to promote the idea and
gather support through state
and federal agencies. Promo-tional
plans include concerts,
look-alike contests, trips to
Presley's birthplace and
entombment, and a number of
other events geared to create
and/or increase awareness of the
need for such a holiday.
C.E. "Gus" Geotas, President
of American Artists Commem-orative
Foundation, Inc. stated
at a recent interview: "Most
people are aware of the
professional side of Elvis Presley
but not all people are aware of ,
the human side of this man. He
was a gentle, sensitive and very
generous person. Those who
knew him well, see him as the ,
personification of the clean-cut
American Youth. There's more
to Presley than his epic music
and singing style. From the start,
he was and is an American
Institution."
The success of this endeavor
will largely depend on the
availability of volunteer help.
"There's a place in everyone's _
heart 'Elvis -the entertainer
and Elvis the Man" noted C.E.
"Gus" Geotas. This is our
opportunity to manifest these
feelings in wholesome appreci-ation
for the man who gave us so
much and who is now offered as
a beacon to light the way for
other aspifing young people in
America.
American Artists Commem-orative
Foundation, Inc., is
chartered in the state of
Delaware with headquarters in
Fort Lee, New Jersey. Plans are
underway for additional offices
in Washington D.C., the mid-west
and the west-coast.
Interested parties can receive
additional information by
writing to: American Artists
Commemorative Foundation,
Inc., P.O. Box 1455, Englewood
Cliffs, New Jersey 07632.

Cocaine Fiends and High on
the Range, two films sponsored
by UAB during Chemical
Dependency week. The films
were shown November 28 in
Petro Theatre at 8:00 p.m. and
were free to the public. High on
the Range was set in the old
west. The cowboys got "high"
on a new cigarette called
Marijuana which caused them to
do wild and crazy things such as
overturn wagons and shoot
their boss.
Cocaine Fiends took place
during the late 1930's. It was the
sad story of Jane Bradford. Jane,
a small town girl, was taken in by
a dope dealer and moved to the
city, only to become a "cocaine
fiend."
Be sure to catch the other
lectures and films sponsored by
UAB during this Chemical

Senate confronts administration
over football
_ •
by A.L. Jones
Again football at EMC was the
major topic of last week's
ASEMC Senate. President Van
de Wetering, Administrative
Vice-President Ken Heikes, and
Athletic Director Woody Hahn
were there to field questions
from the senators and the
members of Executive Cabinet.
Senator Bruce Parker led off
the discussion with a brief
account of the Wednesday
meeting between the senate task
force and the three men
mentioned above along with
Coach Woodring. All but Coach
Woodring refused to allow the
meeting to be taped by the
senators. According to Parker,
they didn't learn anything new
talking to the administration on
this matter.
Senator Judy Trujillo asked
the president if the football
budget, if cut, would be
dispersed among the other
intercollegiate athletics at
Eastern. His reply was that he
would definitely ask for monies
thrOugh the senate legislature if
the program is dropped to fund
the other intercollegiate sports.
ASEMC Business Manager Tom
Page then asked Van de
Wetering if he had not stated at
Wednesday's task force meeting
that he would "guarantee"
'reallocation of those monies
saved. Van de Wetering
emphatically denied that and
then stated that this was being
taken out of context and
chastised Page for doing so.
Unfortunately, the administra-tion
would not allow that
meeting to be tape-recorded so
there is no record of it.
The twenty-thousand dollar
deficit and meeting Title IX
requirements were major points
Van de Wetering discussed as
bearing on the football
program's survival. Community
support and the lack of it was
also brought up.
In response to Senator uary
Mariegard's question as to how
similar programs in the state and
conference were doing
financially, Van de Wetering
stated that the other programs
were in trouble too (refering to
WMC and Tech..) Tech in Butte
has a football budget of
approximately $108,000.
Western will not release their
cost figures for their football
program. In a similiar vein ,
President Van de Wetering
stated that from what he had
been able to discern from the
other members of the Frontier
Conferece, the Conference
would not disintegrate if one of
the members dropped its
football program. The
Conference hangs by a thin
. thread according to Van de
Wetering and the scheduling and
organization is chaotic.
ASEMC Vice-president Grant
Adams asked Van de Wetering
to tell the Senate specifically
how much of the budget of the
athletic department would have
to be reallocated to meet Title IX
requirments. Athletic Director
Woody Hahn stated that he
didn't know and Van de
Wetering also appeared to have
little idea in the matter. The two
areas in need of correction were
making up football's $20,000
deficit and hiring an additional
woman coach, full-time. Van de
Wetering was sure Eastern is not
in compliance with Title IX
requirements but was evasive
and vague when asked for
specifics repeated through the
evening by "the Senators and
Executive Cabinet.
Senator Randy Foreman's
statement that "It looks to me
like, this was slapped, together to
drop football- helped to ignite a
flurry of questions from the
Senate as to the appropriateness
of the Administration's handling
of this matter.
Senator Bruce Parker queried
as to why football was under the
scrutiny of the budget-cutters.
Van de Wetering replied that
along with football costing the
most, there has been poor
support from the community
and students, and that a diverse
and well-rounded athletics
program is a necessity.
Senator Foreman then asked
the president why so little time
had been allocated to the
decision-making process and
thereby cutting off the student
voice. F-oreman pointed out that
when Van de Wetering is'due to
announce the decision,
December 9, he will be at a Board
of Regents meeting out of town.
There will be two days of school
left and the ASEMC Senate
won't meet for another three
weeks after the decision. This
effectively cuts off any chance of
successful student protest to get
the decision changed.
Van de Wetering's reply was
that the decision has to be
arrived at quickly for the players
to save their eligibility if they
wish to transfer schools after
the decision.
Senator Foreman's rebuttal
was why then? The players will
be gone! Why not earlier?
Van de Wetering replied that
by David - — Villarreal
The Director of Student
Union Activities here at Eastern
has submitted his resignation to
officials of the college. Phil
Mueller has been director for
three and a half years now, since
July of 1975. His resignation will
be effective March 36, 1979.
Dr. Dunlop, Dean of
Students, says a search will be
initiated shortly in order to find
a new Director of Student Union
Activities. Mr. Mueller has
stated he will do everything in
his power to make the transition
word to the media about the
-discussion" got out too early
and this _put extra pressure on '
the task . force ._ and-administration--
that the
decision had to be arrived at in as
fair a way as possible and that
they had received "lots of input."
Business Manager Tom Page
pointed out that possibly cutting
back or entirely dropping the
football program had been
brought up last spring during
the campus changeover to zero-based
budgeting. He also stated
that he felt "This cutting a
program in two months is
ridiculous! Why wait till the last
moment to do this?"
Van de Wetering retorted that
he had delayed the examination
this much not to hurt the team!
The task force backed out after
three weeks because of media
attention although he offered
between directors as smooth as
possible.
Mr. Mueller didn't make a
sudden decision; he has been
considering his choice_ s for two
years. However, the chance to
become involved in a family
farming operation in North
Dakota finally won out. But Mr.
Mueller has enjoyed his
experience at EMC tremend-ously,
and it is with mixed
emotions that he views his
future.
It's been under Mr. Mueller's
direction that a great many
improvements in the Student
them a time extension.
Senator Roger Vanlanding-ham
pointedly asked the
President whether or not the
decision had been made. Van de
Wetering stated that he had not
yet made the decision and that
he would then (Dec. 9).
The question of why just cut
football was raised often by
several Senators. Woody Hahn's
response was that football and
basketball are the only programs
that can be cut. Additional
expenses in travel and lodgings
are incurred when a team enters
district and regional finals as
they anticipate the basketball
team doing which throws the
budget off balance. "It's the cost
of being good!" declared Hahn.

programs for students and in the
physical plant itself. An updated
accounting system the
inauguration of a Union art
program, an expanded
Recreational Activities schedule,
a vastly improved Jabberwocky

be directly attributed to the

In the same
Y Athletic Department fumbles, intentionally
A political term of note from
the Nixon Administration seems
to have resurfaced in McMullen
this year. The term is "executive
privilege a good coverup for
shady maneuverings and shady
they are indeed, folks. Again I
take the football dilemma as a
case in point, although some of
the administration's creative
accounting in allocating student
monies will hopefully appear
here later on.
President John Van de
Wetering has handled this
decision in the most convoluted
process of chicanery I have yet to
discover on this campus. He has
faked us out with clever feints
and misdirected the effective '
voice and input of the student
body into a token and
meaningless factor. The current
trick and the most often stated
reason is a supposd failure to
match Title IX requirements
that can be met only by cutting
and reallocating between 40 and
130,000 dollars out of one --
program, football. I haven't seen
this kind of feigned hysteria ,
since the 6-Mill Levy panic.
Title IX does not state that
equal funding must be allocated
to women's sports of even a 60-
40 mix. There must be only
equal opportuity which basically
already exists unless they want
the women's baskeball team to
play big NCAA schools in distant
balmy lands like both men's
basketball and football. Football
won't be carrying on this farce
any longer but no word has been
heard about a similar action
towards the basketball team
(men's) which is apparently the
darling of Athletic Dirctor
Woody Hahn and Van de
Wetering. They've neatly
sidestepped every time requests
that men's basketball be cut back
Also to help meet the fabled Title
IX deficiencies.
According to Ken Heikes and
Van de Wetering at the
November 16 confrontation
with the football players, they
were unable to hire a full-time
women's coach this year because
the money was needed
elsewhere in the budget,
probably to meet the $20,000
deficit in the football program.
This is a result of extremely
inept, incompetent, and stupid
fiscal management on the part of
the Athletic Department with
Woody Hahn in particular to
blame. Coach Woodring stated
that he was never given cost
figures or in other words a
budget per trip to know how
much he could spend to remain
in the budget. Regardless of
whether Hahn spoon-fed those
figures to Woodring, which he
didn't,_ obviously, it should be up
to Woodring as head of the
football program to determine
those figures himself. He,
shirking a vital responsibility,
apparently didn't do so. Along
with an Athletic Director who
can't handle a budget either, the
results were shambles.
Van de Wetering and Heikes
have pledged to varying degrees
(it depends on when and where
one hears them talk aboid it)
they will try to get any monies
saved on the football program to
the other intercollegiate athletic
sports after first paying off the
$20,000 football deficiency.
They admit they have no
guarantees whatsoever that the
state legislature will allow them
to do this and not reallocate the
funds to UM or MSU.
The deficit is basically a result
of Woody Hahn's nonexistent
work in publicizing the football
squad and raising funds from the
community and booster club.
Most of this money has gone
into the scholarships for the
players. Hahn can obviously sell
a program if he wants to.
Witness the tremendous
campaign for Yellowjacket
basketball. Tickets distributed
with each "Whopper at Burger
Kings, television spots, and
highly publicized play at Metra
are three examples of the
campaign. Women's basketball
at EMC took in revenues of
approximately $33,000 last year.
Football took in under $7,000. Is
this a fair and even management
of our athletic program when
some sports are handled
intelligently and adeptly while
others wander and stumble like
football or starve with neglect
like our top-ranked gymnastics
teams?
From three separate sources I
have been informed that .
President Van de Wetering made -
the decision to drop football this
summer and has bee_ n politically
maneuvering for the most
opportune moments since then.
So much for the student input
vein .
Jack Dunlop, John Dacron,
Gene Kiser, John Deeny, Jim
Haugen, Clay Dunlop, Dick
Hatch, Frank Kampfe, Dick
Lamb, Dick Kauk, Bill Hilton,
Bob Winters, Ken Benner and
Bob McWilliams were my
teammates in 1958 and '59 at
EMC. We were couched by a
great person named Al Feldner.
Coach Feldner was a Montana
high school coach who gave
Montana athletes a chance to
play basketball. The_ fine
' education and real experiences .
that we gained at Eastern have ,
enabled us to lead sucessful and
productive lives in the state we
love.
Now Eastern athletics have
been taken over by a President
and Athletic Dirctor who seek
only to fulfill their egos and gain
national recognition as a
basketball power.
As a candidate for basketball
coach at Eastern last spring, I
was told by Athletic Dirctor
Woody Hahn that football would
be dropped and the money put
into the basketball program.
, This is the real reason behind
Van de Wetering's phony study
of _ the football program.
I am angry and disappointed
over the direction Eastern's
athletics have taken the past 20
years. Baseball is gone; football
and other sports are on the way.
This will mean that close to a
hundred young men will be
dep_r i_v ed of_ the experiences I
had. Coaches with college
playing experiences are not
produced. Montana athletes are
not recurited, and community
interest is at an all-time low.
Having been involved in
Montana athletics for over 30
years, I know this is not what the
people of Montana want for
their sons and daughters. The
13,000 fans that watched high
school basketball tournaments
last year, plus the countless
spectators of football and other
school sports want their young
people to have a chance to
continue these activities in
college.
Eastern is one of the
highlights of my life, having
provided me with a great
education, and a chance to
continue my lifetime love of
basketball and baseball. I have
great memories and friendships
that will last throughout my life.
I hope the people of Montana
will join me in my battle to gain
the same opportunities for the
high school athlete of today that .
I had 20 years ago.
Gene Espeland
Great Falls
Van de Wetering claims he has
wanted to help him decide. 'Not
all the snow jobs at Eastern are
outdoors. I sincerely hope my
information is incorrect. We'll
know before the quarter's end
what the decision will be, but
will we ever know the chicanery
and straight-faced lies the
decision came through? I doubt
it. Wave goodbye to the guys in
jerseys, folks.

Editor:
I went to Eastern for three
years and never saw an article on
teachers or how the students
feel about they 're (sic) teachers.
I talked with a lot of students
who feel their (sic) getting
cheated out of an education. The
students feel that some of the
, teachers have no experience or
not related experience in their
feild (sic). I know some of the
teachers at Eastern care about
thier students and want to help
them learn. Yet some teachers
forget that the student pays for a
class and should get the most
knowledge out of it. I have had
teachers who are good and some
bad ones too. I don't like the
teachers who puts students
down for asking questions. I feel
were (sic) here to learn and gain
knowledge and which it takes
asking a questions to find out the
why or understanding of some
things. A student should be
allowed to come to class or stay
away if he or she learns more
through the book than the
lectures. A teacher should never
yell at in class for
talking or expressing a point of
view to a felloW classmate. If a
student ask (sic) another a
question and the other student
can explain it better than the
teacher; he or she should be
allowed to do so. In Junior High
or High School where the tax
payers were the main support of
schools then such structure is
allowed. Where the student is
paying for his or her education
he or she should be given the
privillage (sic) of attending in
asking questions or not to
attend. I feel a teacher who is
good in his or her feild (sic) can
lecture a class period in a smooth
manner without getting lost or
jumping around all the time
causing confusion to the
students. If he or she doesn't
know the material then how can
they expect to teach it to a
student.
I feel if the President would
spend more time on Hiring
Good Teachers with Ph. D.
instead of Master Degrees or the
football team. We, the students
at Eastern maybe (sic) able to get
a Good Education. By no menas
is Eastern with their teaching
staff ready for a Universty (sic)
System. Eastern is still in the
Junior league not quite ready for
the big league until the quality of
teaching arises.

Van de Wetering meets with team
by A.L. Jones
On November 16, President
Van de Wetering met again with
the players of Eastern's football
team as agreed upon at the
conclusion of the in the
president's office several weeks_
ago. It was in Room 117 of the
P.E. building , a classroom that
was filled with the entire team.
Administrative Vice-President
Ken Heikes, Athletic Director
Woody Hahn, Coach Dana
Woodring, several assistant
coaches and PE instructors,
ASEMC Business Manager Tom
Page, Student Grievance Officer
Cathy Wilson, and a number of
cheerleaders were also in
attendance.
Van de Wetering opened with
some major new statements.
From what he had been able to
discern by talking to the other
members of the Frontier
Conference, particularly in
Montana, the Conference could
survive one member dropping
its football program although it
would be a serious blow. Many
of the task force's proposals for
cuts are being phased out of
serious consideration.
University of North Dakota's
level of play will no longer be
undertaken most definitely by
Eastern. This would cut NCAA
Division II teams from our
schedule. Then the rapid fire
questioning began.
The task force projected a
$40,000 cut of teh $135,000
program. $20,000 of that would
cover the present deficit caused
by lack of booster monies. The
Levis
Farah
Bibs
Lee
&Disco
other funds would go to the
women's sports such as
gymnastics, basketball, and
volleyball to better meet Title IX
requirements.
The suggested cuts proposed
by Dana Woodring establish a
bare minimum program, under
which he feels he can operate a
competitive team, would cut the
budget to between $95-100,000.
The budget, after task force
cuts, would be approximately
$87,000.
Title IX is designed to enforce
women's teams being able to
play at the. same competitive .
level as the men's team in a
program. Failure to comply with
this results in a cut-off of federal
funding. This point was the
major argument of the
administration for the rest of the
ninety-minute meeting. Van de
Wetering and Heikes are
apparently quite worried that
EMC's athletic program is not
fully complying with Title IX
requirements.
Coach Dana Woodring did not
believe Title IX to be as genuine
an argument as the administra-tion
stated. He said that he felt
this point might be the reason
_that was stated for dropping the
football program. In other
words, a deception.
Van de Wetering stated
emphatically that Eastern must
allocate more funds to women's
sports to meet Title IX. He
thinks we will have roughly the
same amount of money for
intercollegiate athletics but that
football will definitely not have
as large a budget as this year's.
He. also_mentioned that MSU is
currently being investigated by
HEW for Title IX violations.
Team captain Steve Ahman's
retort to this was why not cut
back all sports proportionately
instead of just dropping the most
expensive.
Van de Wetering offered to
drop men's basketball instead
and then went on to state that

November 3, in Missoula,
Montana, marked the selection
of Montana's MSL Lobbyist.
The person chosen for this
position was Curtis Johnson,
who is currently an under-graduate
at MSU working on his

political requirements, his ease
in talking with people of all types
and occupations, and his ability
to relate with the legislators and
By Dave Cates
Montana Kaimin Reporter
The formal meeting of the
steering committee of the
Montana Student Lobby (MSL)
was canceled this past weekend
leaving the lobby's priorities
unresolved and the lobbyist's
contract unsigned.
Patrick Duffy, a member of
the University of Montana
delegation to the MSL, said
yesterday the reason given for
the cancelation was that the
delegation from Northern
Montana College could not
attend the meeting in Boulder
because of bad weather.
Duffy said that an informal
meeting was held Saturday
night but the formal meeting
Sunday morning was canceled
and the delegates left after
breakfast.
He said the reasoning behind
the cancelation is "totally
most of the other programs had
no fat to cut and were running
on a bare _minimum or less
already.
Woody Hahn was put on the
carpet by members of the team
who demanded to know why he
was doing so much to publicize
Yellowjacket Basketball such as
TV spots and free tickets at
attorneys. The selection panel'
was impressed with Mr.
Johnson's dynamic personality.
The Lobbyist will act as a liason
between the students and the
legislator, working on such
.important issues as University
Systems' scholarships and
Referendum 75.

experience working as a lobbyist
for the Oregon system. His
achievements include co-author

Business Manager Tom Page's
retort was "Does tflat indidkate
that being good is a criteria in
cutting?" • . _
Woody Hahn's reply was
"I've never said that. "
Senator Fz'ank Kuehn asked

Basketball is the most widely
played and watched team game
in the world. It is also the newest
of the major team games. Unlike
games that evolved slowly
through various forms before
they acquired accepted playing
rules, basketball was invented
for a specific purpose at a specific
time and place. In December
1891, in Spring, Mass., the two-team
court game was created by
James Naismith, a 30-year-old
instructor in physical education
at the Internation Young Men's
Christian Association Training
School, now Springfield College.
Naismith's original assign-ment
from Luther H. Gulick, his
superior at Sprinfield, was to
develop some form of athletic
activity that could be used in-doors
during winter months in a
northern climate. Baseball,
football and many other outdoor
games were well established and
popular with participants and
spectators. But between the end
of the football season in autumn
and the beginning of baseball the
next spring, calisthenics and
gymnastics were the only
activities that indoor facilities
permitted, especially in New
England. These activities offered
nothing as attractive as the
exertion, competitive fire,
scoring, and strategy of the
outdoor team games.
Naismith, therefore, simply
took a standard soccer ball, hung
a peach basket at either end of
his small gymnasium, divided his
18-man class into two nine man
teams, and made the object of
per season. He also moved into
second place for career yards
per carr- y av-e raging 5.6 yards per
carry.
Other post season honors
include four players being picked
for the first team All-
Conference selections. They
include: Bolton; Senior Don
Ruth, a 6-2, 210 pound tackle
from Billings; Junior Steve
Ahmann, a 6-1, 215 pound
defensive end from Fort Collins,
CO, and Junior Rich Mart, a 6-1,
203 pound safety from Littleton,
CO.
the game an elementary one: to
throw the ball into one basket
while preventing the other team
from doing the same. Running
with the ball was forbidden. In'
the 1897-98 season, five-man
became the standard.
Essentially, basketball is the
same today as it was in the
beginning. It is now played
in every section of the world,
by both men and women in
schools, colleges, and clubs, and
at national and international
levels. It has also become a major
professional sport in the United
States. No accurate statistics on
players and spectators are
available, but attendance at
formally organized games in the
United States alone exceed 100
million each year. The Olympic
Games program has included
basketball since 1936, with
American teams winning all but

of Oklahoma A & M's deliberate
style, stressing ball possession
and careful shooting. Mikan
went on to become a dominant
player among the professionals,

After World War H, a new

Bob Cousy, a gifted ball-handler;
Bill Russell, a great defensive
player; and Wilt Chamberlain,
the best scorer in NBA history
(he once averaged 50 points a
game in one season and scored
100 points in a single game.)

greatest players of all time are

Volleyball wrap-up
The Eastern Montana college
1978 volleyball season has come
to a close, and Coach Nancy
Gruenert is pleased with the
over-all performance of the
entire team.
"We had a highly skilled squad
this year, and we learned, slowly
perhaps, to hustle and play as a
team rather than individuals"
Gruenert explained.
The 1978 EMC ,Volleyballers
completed the season with an
18-15 win-loss record, and took
second place to Northern
Montana in the Frontier
conference race, ending the year
with a 10-6 Conference mark.
"Two of the best games we
played this season were in the
1978 Eastern Area Divisional
tournament" said Gruenert.
"Hustling was our weakest point
this year, but the coeds sure
performed will against Gonzaga
and Carroll College in the
tournament. We placed 10th.
The tournament was won by
Montana State University with
the University of Montana
placing second."
Laura Bermes Burgess of
Molt, Laura Sundheim of
Fairview, and Joni Barber of
Chinook were elected to the
by Allan L. Minear
Sports enthusiasts will be
happy to hear that the
Recreation Department has new
equipment available.
For EMC skiers, 30 pairs of
Rossignoi fiberglass cross-country
skis were bought.
They are a trouing model with
Silveretta cable bindings and a
two-was system. Along with the
new skis, they purchased 15
pairs of fiverglass XL Polaris ski
poles.
For backpackers: High quality
Frontier Conference first team.
,Sundheim was also name "most
valuable player" by her
teammates, and Carol Burns of
Dubois, Wyoming, was elected
"most inspirational player"
while the team voted for Tracy
Treinen of Riverton, Wyoming,
as the "most improved player" of
the year.
Eastern will be losing the
talents of five seniors, all of
whom were regular starters this
year: Burgess, Sundheim,
Barber, Gwen Wock of Casper,
Wyoming, and Yvonne Kasten
of Brockway, Montana.
"Burgess and Sundhiem were
two of our best setters" said
Gruenert. Burgess played two
years at Eastern, having
transferred from Northwest
ComMunity College, and was
also considered to be one of the
best hustlers. Sundheim has
played all of her collegiate years
on the volleyball team, and, in
spite of her 5-4 height, was the
highest jumper on the squad
making her very effective in the
front row of play.
Gruenert looks to Dallas
Mease of Lander, Wyoming, and
Laurie Kandt of Casper,
Wyoming, to replace Burgess
Polarguard sleeping bags,

badly new maps were needed.)
For river floaters they now have
two new rafts which are thicker
and have greater stability.
It's the hope of the
Recreational Department that
the new equipment will be well-used,
so see it for yourself.
and Sundheim as setters next
year. Both are juniors this
season, with Mease transferring .
from Central Wyoming Junior
College and Kandt from Casper
Junior College.
Barber, one of the best
blockers on the team, also
graduates. According to the
coach, Barber steadily improved
her timing throughout the
season, and was a consistently
hard worker.
Gruenert looks to Kim Seville
of Columbia Falls, a junior, and
Jolene Lekse, a Billings
sophomore, to be key blockers
next year. Seville also is a
powerful spiker, and her
strongest asset is hitting. Lekse,
a key substitute this year, is a
super-strong server who has
shown great improvement.
Another strong blocker is
Donna Hansen , a Jr. from
Walden, Colo., and a transfer
from Eastern Wyoming Junior
College. According to Gruenert,
Hansen has the ability to be a
court leader, one of the best
front row players, and should
develop all-around with
experience.
"We're also losing Kasten, and
she is one player that really
surprised me" admitted
Gruenert. "I knew she was
exceptionally good in the back
row, but either I didn't give her
a chance or she developed her
front row talents too, and
became a fine all-arounder this
year." Kasten played two years
at North Dakota: Williston, and
one year at the University of
Montana before coming to
Eastern.
Three other volleyball players
are expected to return next year,
and will provide needed depth
and experience: Treinen, who
came to EMC with absolutely no
volleyball experience and has
vastly improved; Burns, a
sophomore, who is a strong
server and hard worker; and Deb
Akers of Lusk, Wyoming, who
also has a strong serve and good
court hustle.

LITERARY TRASH
Now about this budget item here. .
by A.L. Jones
It's considered the worst part
of the year by most officers of
campus organizations, and
perhaps it's only a coincidence
that it takes place two weeks
after Christmas vacation when
everybody feels pent-up,
hungover, and owlish. The
ordeal I refer to is that of
preparing and justifying your
organization's budget to the
ASEMC student senate. It never
is much fun and distracts us
from the business of running
our organizations, but it's an
unpleasant necessity that most
of us go through. Those that
don't go through this time-consuming
process usually wish
they did so they could avoid the
inane fund-raising projects of
their high school days. Selling
beanies to seniors and weaving
throw-rugs out of lint collectd
from the dorm dryers have been
two of the more successful
attempts lately, and I doubt
either of them made more than
$50 for the clubs that put them
on, the Sons of Norway-
Blackfoot chapter and the girls
from Alpha Sigma Sigma
sorority and baking club. So
with the thoughts of similar
projects to supplement our
haphazard advertising revenues,
I finally sat down with our
nervous little blonde business
manager and with her, our
financial records of sorts, a
phone book and the phone,
worked out a very feasible
i&WADOPDMV-PaWat

budget for the next year. It
would be the year I would be
editor of The Retort and I
wanted to make sure _that I
would have a budget. I was
Assistant or Managing Editor at
the time and felt I had a pretty
good grasp of our finances.
Pam, our business manager, is
a fourth year business major
with the accounting option well-in-
hand. She will gladly admit,
however, that our intricate,
disorganized mess often drives
her to tears and that the
Business office through which it
is all so slowly processed adds to
the confusion. Pam has begun
smoking a lot more heavily since
the threatening notes from our
printer first started coming.
She's adjusted to the fact that
from merchants we patronize
for supplies she will receive
omnious notes to the effect that
they have not received their
remuneration yet through the
ever so slow business office and
that they will be sending Italian
goons to deprive her of her car
and all other material goods until
payment is received. The people
we owe over a hundred dollars to
are even worse. She
intermittently tittered,
stammered, muttered, groaned,
and puffed in the four hours of a
Thursday afternoon that the
budget took to form.
With a roar of triumph, I
snatched up the tow working
copies of the budget and handed
our secretary the final form for
submission to the Student
Government. She's a freshman
on work-study from the Editor's
hometown of White Sulphur
Springs and is usually in need of
something to keep her busy.
Unfortunatley she was working
on her library research paper--
"An Examination of Intra-cultural
Habits of Burmese
Baboons as They Apply to
Goethe's Dr. Faustus" but
promised to do it up properly
within the next week.
Now, four weeks later, the
budget was coming out of the
Ways and Means Committee
with their reccommendations
and under the designation
"Financial Bill No. 79." Each
financial bill has to wait in Ways
' and Means for three weeks, so
this was nothing unexpected. I
had been unable to attend the
Ways and Means hearing during
which the bill was discussd and
the committee's rec-commendations
arrived at. The
meeting was convenienity
scheduled during a test in
Economics 201 dealing with
"how to run an economy into a
sever depression and not feel
guilty." So I entered with no idea
as to how it would be received by
this financially tight senate.
An ominous note struck me
immediately as I entered the
wood-paneled Memorial
Conference Room. As my
nostrils recognized and
welcomed the peculiar aroma of
the senate meetings, a strange
blend of cigarette smoke, coffee,
sweat, and alcohol, I sat
cautioulsy down in the vinyl
cushioned chairs provided along
the walls for spectators. The
business manager, subject of an
editorial, critical, last fall smiled
at me with a triumphant look
suffusing his delicate, pale
features surrounded by lank
black hair. The president looked
like an wolf ready to close in for
the kill, and I imagined saliva
dripping from his even white
teeth. He was also the subject of
an extrememly biting editorial
during the fall. My friends on
the senate looked worried, and a
distinct whiff of Canadian Club
Whiskey wafted from their
direction at the end of the long
wood table at which sat the
sixteen senators and the three
members of Executive Cabinet.
The meeting proceeded slowly
along through two budgets;
then, finally, mine came up. The
president leaned forward to rest
his forearms on the tabletop, his
feigned insouciance vanished.
The business manager grinned
secretly to himself and pulled
out some long computer
printouts from the Business
Office. I noticed those sheets
were annotated and marked
a red Flair's brilliant lines. I was
yanked abruptly back into the
meeting by the business
manager's voice intoning to the
senate the reccommendations of
the Ways and Means Com-mittee.
Their proposals
eliminated all of the planned
capital equipment I had
calculated so carefully such as
typewriters, an artwaxer, an
ultrasonic technical pen cleaner,
a light table, and a Mr. Coffee
machine with a brandy dispenser
attachment. Further, they
eliminated T-shirts for the staff,
a limousine service for the
editor, pencils, photographic
supplies, the Playboy,
Penthouse, and Hustler sub-scriptions,
and rum allowance
for the editor--allowed a bottle a
quarter out of the budget for aid
in writing editorials at 4:00 am to
fill space. The last cut really
hurt.
Then came Executive
Cabinet's reccommendations. It
was short and simple: cut the
newspaper off entirely. When
half the senate cheered that one,
I knew I was in trouble. I sank
into my sweater a little more as I
began to lose hope.
Expires December 31, 1978
The discussion that followed
consisted of the Executive
Cabinet passing around back
issues of the paper with
particularly offending portions
circled. They muttered and
nodded so much over these that I
knew it was going to be rough.
swifly put together a defense
worthy of Clarence Darrow in
his prime in my whirling head
and then confidently thrust out
my hand to be recognized by a
senator so that I could speak to
the senate. My hand would be
waving past the adjournment of
the meeting.
Frank was the only one that
saved the paper from going the
way of the passenger pigeon
(utter extinction). He's the sole
staff member on senate and
luckily extremely effective in
senate. He spoke and lobbied for
twenty solid minutes and
managed to amend the bill so
radically that we could continue
our existence on campus. Only
we had to change our name to
the "Rimrock" and change our
production somewhat.

Comes A Horseman
by Frank Kuehn
I don't think any professional
critic of the silver screen would
disagree when I say that, as an
actress, Jane Fonda has matured.
I'm refering to her role in her
last film Comes a Horseman,
starring Jane Fonda, " James
Caan, and Jason Robard.
The setting could have been
from any Zane Gray or Louis
L'amour novel, with majestic
mountains and high mountain
meadows. However, the time
frame is near the end of World
War II. If not for. the airplane
and the "ancient-looking" truck,
one might easily imagine an
earlier time frame.
What is going on is typical of
the early West. A large cattle
baron wants more land and a
head strong, stubborn female
(who just happens to own a
small, choice piece of the valley)
won't sell out. So, being the
baron type, Jason Robard does
his best to get the land, the
cattle, and even Jane any way he
can--even murder.
Meanwhile, James Caan, just
back from the war, buys a piece
of Jane's land with a buddy as a
partner. Robard fails in an
attempt to have the pair
murdered, but Caan is badly
wounded. Aided by a salty old
boy named Frank, Fonda puts
him up in a shed until he is
better. But a series of bad luck
befalls the struggling rancher, so
Jane and James, along with
Frank; join forces.
The movie is blessed with a
believable plot, brilliant acting,
suspense and drama that keep
the viewer guessing the
outcome. The movie is award
caliber, especially for Fonda,
who performs as well, if not
better, than her portrayal of a
'New York hooker in Kiute, or a
housewife turned hilarioulsy
crooked in Fun with Dick and
Jane.
Comes a Horseman rivals any
movie at the box office for
viewing pleasure. Anyone with
a feel for the land, or the last of
the American West, will enjoy
Comes a Horseman.

Montana Kaimin reporter
Board of Regents Chairman
Ted James said yesterday a new
commissioner of higher
education probably would not
begin work until July 1, 1979.
- A search is now being
conducted to replace Lawrence
Pettit, the present com-missioner,
who has resigned
effective January 1. George
Bandy, deputy commissioner,
will then become acting
commissioner until a replace-ment
is hired.
Bandy has not applied for the
position.
James said that because most
of the candidates would have to
fulfill their present job
obligations until July 1, they
would not be able to begin work
before then.
James said that none of the
applicants for the job has been
officially eliminated, but "some
obviously" are not qualified. For
example, James said that those
who did not have a doctorate
would not be qualified.
Wilma Burke, executive
secretary to Pettit, who is also
acting as secretary for the search
committee, said yesterday 124

applications had been recieved
for the job by the Oct. 1 deadline.
The original deadline for
applications had been set for
Sept. 1, but because not enough
qualified people had applied, the
deadline was extended to Oct. 1.
Burke said 96 applications
were received by the ' first
deadline.
Members of the search
committee are the entire Board
of Regents; University of
Montana President Richard
Bowers, who represents the
Council of Presidents; and Hugh
Dresser, a faculty member at
Montana Tech, who represents
the Inter-Unit Faculty Council.
Laurie Briney, student regent,
is representing students on the
search committee.
The regents will have a "pretty
good idea" after the regents'
meeting on Dec. 11 and 12 which
applicants the field could be
narrowed to, James said.
The field will probably be
narrowed to four or five
candidates in January, James
said. And the new commissioner
would be selected after that and
would take over the job July 1.
Burke said presidents' council
is scheduled to review the
applications on Dec. 1, the
faculty council on Dec. 2, and the
Students Advisory Council on
Dec. 3.
Burke said she expects the
groups to submit reports to the
regents at the December
meeting.
At its June 28 meeting, the
regents adopted the procedures
for the commissioner search as
proposed by Pettit.
The recommendation says
that legislators, members of the
governor's staff, the governor
himself and all others external
to the university system should
not be involved" in the selection
of the new commissioner.
"Any participation on their
part raises erroneous impli-cations
concerning their
legitimate role respecting the
university system" Pettit said,
"and we do not need to
relinquish this important
prerogative in order to buy their
good will."
Pettit said in a recent
interview that new corn-missioner
should have "political
savvy and talents" but should be
appointed on the basis of his
academic credentials.
The commissioner's position
has "too much political identity
now" he said.
The criteria for the new
commissioner adopted by the
regents include:
*Possession of a doctorial
degree.
*Distinguished experience in
academic administration,
teaching or scholarship.
*Familiarity with statewide
systems of higher education and
significant experience in public
higher education.
*Familiarity with higher
education.
*The ability to represent
higher education nationally.
*The ability to represent
higher education credibly to
legislators and the lay public.
*The ability to provide
professional leadership for the
regents.
*The ability to work with and
provide leadership to the
professional staff of the
commissioner's office.
*Demonstrated administra-tive
capacity sufficient to
supervise experts in different
fields within the commissioner's
office.
*The ability to relate to
professionals in other levels of
education within the state.
*The ability to understand the
concerns and needs of students
and faculty, and to relate to them
in a direct manner without
undermining the authority of
campus presidents.
Alpha Mu Gamma
increases ranks
by Glenda Dutton
The Beta Gamma Chapter of
Alpha Mu Gamma, the national
foreign language honor society,
held a two-part initiation
November 15, 1978. Eight
students were initiated as active
members: Chrissantha Cramer,
Clemencia Hackley, Cheryl
Kelleher, Sarah Noe, Annette
Reynolds, Billie Jean Ruff,
Sandra Warner, and Linda
Zygmond. Student membership
to Alpha Mu Gamma is based on
distinctive scholarship within
foreign language study;
cumulative grade point average
of 3.25 is required.
The second part of the
initiation was devoted to
honoring certain faculty of the
Department of Languages for
exceptional contributions of
advice, time, and energy. Dr.
Maurice Heidinger, head of the
Department of Languages and
professor of German; Ms. Carol
Critelli and sDr. Theodore
Jensen, assistant professors of
Spanish; Dr. Svein Oksenholt,
professor of. Norwegian and
German; and Dr. William Plank,
associate professor of French
and the current advisor to Alpha
Mu Gamma, were initiated
separately as faculty members.
Following the ceremonies and
an intermission for refresh-ments,
Cindy Grissom pre-sented
slides of Switzerland
(both the topography of the
country and its academic system
were discussed).

Language Workshops
Katoya Players plan busy winter
The Katoya Players of EMC
have announced their activities
for the 1978-79 school year.
Katoya is the oldest chartered
organization on campus. They
were chartered to promote
theatre at EMC and in past years
have staged several fund raising
programs, but this year shall
prove to be the best. Several
fund raising projects have been
successful in Katoya's attempts
to attend January 5th, Rocky
Mountain Theatre Festival in
Grand Junction, Colo. Most of •
you are familiar with their
annual Halloween make-up
booth, which was a success again .;
this year. They alio were very
active in this year's Sacrifice
Cliff Jaycees Haunted House.
Plans for the future include
selling old fashioned photo-graphs
in which the purchaser is
dressed in an authentici
costume, his/hei picture is
taken, and the photo is "tin-typed".
A nice Christmas gift.
Club members will take the
photos under the supervision of
Wayne Thares, who owned and
operated this type of business 't
for the past year in Wyoming.
1Portraits will be taken between
11-3 on Dec. 6, 7, and 8 in the
SUB for a very nominal price.
Future plans include a radio
controled road rally on the Petro
Theatre stage. Details will be
announced soon. If you are
interested in joining this very
active campus organization,
contact the Communication
Arts Department at 657-2178 or
stop by the photo sessions in the
SUB and talk to them.
An assistant professor from
the University of Montana in
Missouiaf Lynda Miller, and Dr.
Sandra Rietz, assistant
professor of Education at
Eastern Montana College in
• Billings, are conducting a
language seminar.
The program has been divided
into two parts with Ms. Miller
conducting the first half of the
program Friday and Saturday,
December 1. and 2. Her topic will
be "Language and Context."
She will lecture Friday
evening from 7:00 to 9:00 and
again Saturday moringing from
9:00 to 12:00 in room 209 in the
Special Education Building at
EMC.
At the same time, Dr. Rietz
will be at the University of
Montana lecturing on
"Language and Reading."
At a later date, the two
assistant professors will conduct
the same seminar except Ms.
Miller will lecture at the U of M
and Dr. Rietz will present her
program at EMC.
The seminar is open to the
public, and it is expected that
speech language clinicians and
people interested in the reading
field will want to take advantage
of the seminars. The program
can be taken for one credit.
Elvis day? $4.72/hour
American Artists Commem-orative
Foundation, Inc. recently
announced extensive plans to
establish January 8th, Elvis
Presley's birthday as a national
and/or state holiday.
American Artists Commem-orative
Foundation, Inc., a non-profit
organization, plans to
work on a city, state and national
level to establish volunteer
centers at key points across the
country to promote the idea and
gather support through state
and federal agencies. Promo-tional
plans include concerts,
look-alike contests, trips to
Presley's birthplace and
entombment, and a number of
other events geared to create
and/or increase awareness of the
need for such a holiday.
C.E. "Gus" Geotas, President
of American Artists Commem-orative
Foundation, Inc. stated
at a recent interview: "Most
people are aware of the
professional side of Elvis Presley
but not all people are aware of ,
the human side of this man. He
was a gentle, sensitive and very
generous person. Those who
knew him well, see him as the ,
personification of the clean-cut
American Youth. There's more
to Presley than his epic music
and singing style. From the start,
he was and is an American
Institution."
The success of this endeavor
will largely depend on the
availability of volunteer help.
"There's a place in everyone's _
heart 'Elvis -the entertainer
and Elvis the Man" noted C.E.
"Gus" Geotas. This is our
opportunity to manifest these
feelings in wholesome appreci-ation
for the man who gave us so
much and who is now offered as
a beacon to light the way for
other aspifing young people in
America.
American Artists Commem-orative
Foundation, Inc., is
chartered in the state of
Delaware with headquarters in
Fort Lee, New Jersey. Plans are
underway for additional offices
in Washington D.C., the mid-west
and the west-coast.
Interested parties can receive
additional information by
writing to: American Artists
Commemorative Foundation,
Inc., P.O. Box 1455, Englewood
Cliffs, New Jersey 07632.

Cocaine Fiends and High on
the Range, two films sponsored
by UAB during Chemical
Dependency week. The films
were shown November 28 in
Petro Theatre at 8:00 p.m. and
were free to the public. High on
the Range was set in the old
west. The cowboys got "high"
on a new cigarette called
Marijuana which caused them to
do wild and crazy things such as
overturn wagons and shoot
their boss.
Cocaine Fiends took place
during the late 1930's. It was the
sad story of Jane Bradford. Jane,
a small town girl, was taken in by
a dope dealer and moved to the
city, only to become a "cocaine
fiend."
Be sure to catch the other
lectures and films sponsored by
UAB during this Chemical
Dependency week.

lecture and demonstration in Petro Theater by
renowned arctic explorer Commodore Robert
Perry. Perry will be speaking on methods of
mixing marijuana and hashish into pemmican, a
staple food for arctic exploration (and excellent
for backpacking) that was developed by the
North American Indians many centuries ago.
Perry will also tell harrowing tales of wandering
through the frigid arctic wastelands high as a kite
in his sealskin underwear. Fun and education for
all from this remarkable explorer and joint roller.
Free samples of hashish style pemmican will be
available in the SUB on the day of the lecture,
Nov. 23. Pemmican is made of bear fat, berries,
small chunks of venison, and Campbel?s chunky
style Vegetable Beef Manhandler soup. All
THC-containing ingredients (hash and grass) are
totally natural ingredients for you health food
nuts!
